It began with a funeral…

Mickey Craddick had long been the town of Overthorpe’s Mr Big – a man with his dirty finger in all sorts of dirty pies, from drug-pushing to extortion and blackmail. But now he is dead and the residents of Overthorpe start to breathe a sigh of relief.

None more so than three men, close friends since childhood. They gather each Friday to enjoy a quiet game of dominoes. Duncan Winslade is a retired police officer; Barry Stocker is unemployed and down-on-his-luck; Alfie Parker runs his own business. All three of them are united by the fact they’re more than glad to see the back of Mickey Craddick.

As she struggles to search for herself, she discovers strange inconsistencies—things that make her question everything she’s been told.

Set in the not-too-distant future, when space flight has evolved to the point where humanity is ready to colonize the solar system, Tales of Pirx the Pilot follows one somewhat-hapless explorer as he struggles though his training as a cadet, his career as a pilot, and his tenure as captain of a merchant ship.

In these collected stories, Pirx stumbles his way through various exploits: traveling to the moon; battling mechanical malfunctions; encountering robots; and confronting questions of ambition, evolution, exploration, experimentation, and the nature of humanity itself. And in classic Pirx fashion, he faces down each dilemma with charm, curiosity, courage, and intuition.

Thrill of the Chase: He stopped for an accident and stumbled upon the one woman he’d been looking for all his life.

Sylvia Plath’s shocking, realistic, and intensely emotional novel about a woman falling into the grip of insanity

Esther Greenwood is brilliant, beautiful, enormously talented, and successful, but slowly going under—maybe for the last time. In her acclaimed and enduring masterwork, Sylvia Plath brilliantly draws the reader into Esther’s breakdown with such intensity that her insanity becomes palpably real, even rational—as accessible an experience as going to the movies. A deep penetration into the darkest and most harrowing corners of the human psyche, The Bell Jar is an extraordinary accomplishment and a haunting American classic.
